We have tried all the usual, ignoring, saying we are not interested, asking them not to call again etc etc....so by writing to who ever "it worked" l really did'nt like them calling and put in particular being so persistant!!!!

my brother answers the door.......... naked.......... then he invites them in to discuss the bible and the state of the world............ I don't think anyone has taken up his offer :-D

Cold callers? I say......... hold on a minute....... put the 'phone down........ I go away for about 10 minutes......... they're gone when I get back. :-D

I agree PP - the JW callers don't really bother me but I don't like cold callers. The latest opening gambit is "hello madam - nothing to worry about I just want to talk to you about.....". Why would I be worried?

I don't even pretend I'm not home - I just don't answer the door. If I get caught and open the door I tell them I'm not interested and close the door. They make the decision to knock on my door uninvited so I don't have any qualms about letting them know I'm not prepared to talk to them.

AnnCardiff, Morning, I always tell them I am Jewish, and they make a quick retreat.

Good Luck

A large people carrier has just parked opposite my house carrying a crowd of people who I believe are Jehova's Witnesses - I do not appreciate any religious groups calling on me and have a sign on my door to say so - we'll see if they do call!! they will be very sorry of they do!
